Quarters in Dubai

29.02.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 1

Roger moved into the third round in Dubai after a 7-5, 6-3 victory over Feliciano Lopez today.

In an equal fight and tight first set Roger had his first break points - three to be precise - at 5-4, but he was not able to seize the opportunity at that very moment. Eventually, Roger served 9 aces and got 95% of his first serve points to take the first set 7-5. The second set was similar to the first, with Roger untouchable on serve. Our champ needed just one matchball to win the match after 75 minutes.

Dear Roger
Congratulations! It was a very good match! I enjoyed watching you and your wonderful play! Hope you'll continue like that, you are THE BEST EVER SEEN!
Wish you all the best and good luck dearest Roger!
Go, Roger, goooooooooooooo!
Love, Mimi

Well done again Roger, great tennis. Loved the shotmaking of both of you, so refreshing after having to watch grinders so much these days, the faster court also helps your attacking game. Looking forward to the semi, think I'd prefer you to come up against Del Potro than JW. Lots of love and congrats. xxx
